    Does anyone know which parts of the Production Management module a Shop Floor user is entitled to run?  I know they can do labor entries but for the life of me can't find anything that spells out which menu items they can run.  Guess I should have taken better notes during those Production Management presentations......  Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Here it is straight from Darin at Scanco:

    HI Doug!!

     

    The Shop Floor user will only allow the following basic transactions:

     

    • Parts/Material Usage – Limitations are:  You cannot add new items to the work ticket.  You cannot do item substitutions.
    • Labor Collection – Limitations are:  You cannot change the activity code.  You cannot track quantities completed (I think).
    • Make to Stock Entries – Limitations are:  You cannot record by-product completions
    • Status Changes – Works the same as MFG 100
    • Time Card (Payroll clock in/out) – Not available at all for the Shop Floor User

     

    All of the things that aren't included in Shop Floor are available in MFG 100.

     

     

    Thank you,

    @Douglas Luchansky - thanks for the info, I had also reached out to Darin and he replied about 5 minutes after you did (so 90 Minds is still the fastest best place for information!). 

    One thing I didn't realize is the Shop Floor users REQUIRE Mobility for Manufacturing and use an app instead of the Sage interface.  I must have missed that part in all the presentations​ - I thought it was a limited access version of the Sage screen. 

    I believe the install and configuration of the Scanco programs on the server to run it will also be required.  While I can see the benefits for some organizations it's definitely more complicated and costly than I thought.
